My dear graduands,
Today is a significant day in your life when you
are obtaining a degree in your area of interest
from Karunya. I congratulate each of you for
earning this degree through tireless efforts,
with the continued prayers and support of your
parents, teachers, friends and well-wishers. I
thank you and your parents for choosing Karunya
to pursue higher studies. Your teachers have
mentored and groomed you to achieve academic
excellence and instilled values in you to become
responsible citizens of our country.
The employers have vouched for the integrity,
loyalty, skills, and remarkable team spirit of
the alums of Karunya. You become a true
Karunyan when you combine these qualities
with �compassion�, which Karunya stands for. It
is worthwhile to remember the words in the
Scripture, �Whatever you did for one of the
least of little brothers and sisters of Mine,
you did for Me�.
You are now leaving the portals of Karunya
University to serve humanity and work for human
welfare. The convocation is the first milestone
from which you climb up the steps of the
professional ladder to achieve greater heights.
Any time, you are welcome to this campus, which
has been a �home away from home for you�
I want to remind you once again of the ancient
exhortation from the Book of Isaiah, which is
also the motto of Karunya: �Arise and Shine, for
your light has come�.�
May God bless each one of you.
Dr. Paul Dhinakaran
Chancellor, KITS
